George PearkesEarly vote dropping in #NC04, looks a little light for Allam to my eye but that could be too pessimistic.
Andrew SolenderI asked Jeffries if he'll support Nida Allam if she defeats Rep. Valerie Foushee in the #NC04 primary tonight.
"I'm going to focus on Nov. 3 at this moment, and we'll continue to support every Democratic incumbent that gets elected."
The DownballotSomething really strange just happened in #NC04: A TV station took down an ad from a candidate. Federal law has been very clear for a very long time that this isn't allowed.
It all goes back to the New Deal, the 1956 race for #NDSen, and an alleged communist plot. Our deep dive →

David MooreHakeem Jeffries' DCCC is affiliated with a dark-money funded super PAC backing Rep. Valerie Foushee in #NC04 against challenger Nida Allam.
The only known donor in the mix is the AI-and-crypto invested, AIPAC-donor billionaire Robert Granieri of the secretive trading firm Jane Street Capital. Latest @sludge, become a paid subscriber and help our two-person team continue this reporting in 2026:

Joe VilasCan anyone local speak to this? I'm not plugged in enough to know if any of it is true, or if David Hogg or some related PAC is even actually pushing money at the NC04 primary election. https://bsky.app/profile/rsouissivibes.bsky.social/post/3me2nuun27s2y

David Hogg is anti-Black Women. He ain't going after Southwest Washington's infamous moderate Democrat U.S. House Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez for constantly supporting ICE. He's also not pushing for progressive candidates in fucking FLORIDA, where he's from.
Ruby S.Rep. Foushee would be great for a purple district in Eastern NC. But #NC04 is one of the most progressive districts in the country, and we deserve representation too - especially at a time like this when leadership requires confronting fascists.
